"AAAAAAAH—!"
The agonizing scream reverberated violently through the chamber, twisting into a wet choke before dissolving into silence. On the stone floor, the victim's body twitched non-stop, limbs spasming irregularly as life rapidly ebbed away. Wide, unblinking eyes stared into the empty air, filled with an absolute horror that remained frozen even as the pupils permanently dilated.
The cloaked figure stood completely still, watching the final tremors quit the corpse.
Almost immediately, translucent text began to populate the air, the glow reflecting blankly off the dark fabric of the hood.

[Plundering initiated.]

[74,300 units of refined mana successfully devoured.]
[Active Skill: 'Spatial Distortion' has been successfully devoured.]

The figure read through the lines without any expression, while feeling the subtle changes in their own body.
Ding!
